This book challenges the myths of modern psychology and in that it renders immeasurable help to the modern man, the foundations of whose soul have been ruthlessly shaken by Freud and his legacy. Nirmal Kumar provides a scientific alternative to the gloomy study of Freud and proves that the latter’s study was an exaggeration as it was based on the psychology of a frightened and shell-shocked Europe. It is the first time after Freud that an equally brilliant mind peeps into the depths of the human psyche to discover truth, beauty and love as the essence of its being, not a monster.

Besides being one of the most profound and original thinkers of modern times, Nirmal Kumar are a well known novelist, poet and dramatist in Hindi. His novel “Bin Udgam Ke Srota” (Brooks without Origin) has already become a landmark in modern fiction. It carries the best traditions of Tolstoy, Dickens, Turgnev and Pushkin. The famous novelist Jainendra has characterized his art as fresh and innocent like showers from a wild cataract. In his words “Nirmal is a rare boon to literature.” Regarding his book on “Sikh Philosophy” it has been said: “Nothing on these lines has been attempted before in Sikh learning. This book is a decisive and permanent gain for Sikh studies.”

The author’s earlier work “The Stream of Indian Culture” has been hailed by critics the world over as a highly original and fruitful work that has gone to lit a few steps beyond the impasse before which our generation stands baffled.
